Title: Big Jim quiver and a bowquiver question - stumping arrow
Post by: Oregon Okie on August 06, 2012, 05:45:00 PM
Just got a Big Jim's bow quiver. Fastest shipping from East Coast to Utah I could imagine. Must have hit it just in time on Friday but it showed up today even though my email said it shipped today. It's been a long day but not that long. Really like it so far. Good fit and seems secure.

Question....I tried to search but haven't found the exact info. I know i've seen it before but can't track it down.
How do bow quiver guys secure a small game arrow in a bow quiver?  I guess if you commit to it you could make a big hole in the foam and get it up in there. Maybe that's the way to go just wanted to see if anyone else had a plan.

I put it on a 64 Toelke Whip in case anyone is curious. Medium size with 5 arrow holder. Putting eclipse 145's in there no problem.

Try sticking the nock in the foam if no broadhead is attached.I do it with my G.N. and Eagle Flight.Kip

Buy a piggy backer and the arrow will ride on the outside of the quiver

I do like Kip, put it in upside down (I use a Judo point).

Just started doing this and love it. I also have a Big Jim Quiver on a Toelke Whip.

The nock is basically the same size as the field tip so no worries about it loosening up. The gripper keeps a snug grip on it as well.  


Yes, pink is easy to see. I like white also. Reflective tape is a big plus as well.

Yep, judo upside down always worked for me when I was using bowquiver. Just be careful that you don't slice the fletching when inserting broadheads.
